Bryston sst2 series or Parasound Halo series?

I currently have Revel Performa f-52's for the fronts and A Revel Ultima voice for the center, and Revel Performa m-20's for the rears. Currently running with 5 Maratnz MA-700 200watt mono blocks. The system sounds very good but I want to take it to the next level. Looking to upgrade the amps. Looking at possibly the Parasound Halo series or the new Brystons. Any thoughts or suggestions?

"Are you interested in the multichannel amps or mixing 2 channel and 3 channel?"
I am open to suggestions. I have even thought of using a 5 channel using 2 on the fronts hi and low each and the 5th would drive the center. I'm not familiar with ATI but they seem pretty versatile. I thought about using Halo A-21 in mono mode but I'm told they need an 8ohm load when in mono. My Revels run at 6.5.

I'm not really running out of power so much. I'm looking to increase detail and open up the sound stage. I also have the Revel B-15 sub with the crossover set around 60. So the sub should be handling a lot of the heavy lifting. My preamp is the Arcam AV9. Been pretty happy with it overall. But I don't think I'm getting everything I can out of the speakers. That review was very interesting.

Bob,
What would your thoughts be putting the ATI 3003 and the Bryston 6b head to head. Witch do you think would be the better sound match for my Revels?
